ppp and pppconfig are not linux-specific, only monolithic-kernel specific.
IIRC this PPP could run on solaris etc.

util-linux has been ported to GNU, so it probably builds on GNU/FreeBSD
without problem as it's using glibc. The patch is in bug #153410, but I
think Guillem Jover has made a newer one, I'm CCing him.

cheers,
